The very hungry caterpillar lives on the number line. For each non-zero integer $i$, a fruit sits on the point with coordinate $i$. The caterpillar moves back and forth; whenever he reaches a point with food, he eats the food, increasing his weight by one pound, and turns around.

In the game of Guess the Card, two players each have a $\frac{1}{2}$ chance of winning and there is exactly one winner. Sixteen competitors stand in a circle, numbered $1,2,\dots,16$ clockwise. They participate in an $4$-round single-elimination tournament of Guess the Card. Each round, the referee randomly chooses one of the remaining players, and the players pair off going clockwise, starting from the chosen one; each pair then plays Guess the Card and the losers leave the circle. If the probability that players $1$ and $9$ face each other in the last round is $\frac{m}{n}$ where $m,n$ are positive integers, find $100m+n$. [i]Proposed by Evan Chen[/i]

Wesyu is a farmer, and she's building a cao (a relative of the cow) pasture. Shw starts with a triangle $A_0A_1A_2$ where angle $A_0$ is $90^\circ$, angle $A_1$ is $60^\circ$, and $A_0A_1$ is $1$.

Next, she extends $A_3A_1$ to $A_4$ such that $A_4A_1=\dfrac16A_3A_1$. She continues, each time extending $A_nA_{n-2}$ to $A_{n+1}$ such that $A_{n+1}A_{n-2}=\dfrac1{2^n-2}A_nA_{n-2}$.
